At Junior Achievement, we believe in “possible.” Each day, we work to help young people discover what’s possible in their lives. We achieve this by helping them connect what they learn in school with life outside the classroom. We let them know that it's possible to invest in their future, gain a better understanding of how the world works, and pursue their dreams. We show them that it’s possible for tomorrow to be a better day.
